Pencil Portraits Drawn from Photographs

It seems to me that life is made up of little details. When you become familiar with something, someone or someplace, it’s the details that ultimately make them unique. I believe an important part of portrait art is taking the time to really notice those details and weave them into each piece. Discovering and capturing the essence of each subject with just a pencil and paper is a new and fascinating experience each time. Knowing the joy the end result can bring to you is the greatest gift this artist can receive.

My media is graphite pencil on heavy-weight Bristol paper. All my artwork is completely hand drawn with no computer enhancements of any kind. Each premium portrait usually takes anywhere from 5 – 30 hrs to complete (depending on size, complexity etc). As I said before, it's important to capture the details properly; therefore, for me, patience is a must.
